Brief History Of Saguaro Lake

Saguaro Lake was formed by the Stewart Mountain Dam, which was completed in 1930. It was the last of the reservoirs
to be built on the Salt River.

The lake is named for the Saguaro Cactus, which stand majestically in the surrounding desert landscape. Saguaro Lake has
more than 22 miles of shoreline, creating a great environment for boating, kayaking, sailing, skiing, jet skiing, fishing and camping.

The Saguaro del Norte Recreation site is near the dam and includes Saguaro Lake Marina, which includes a restaurant and boat concession, a Maricopa
County Sheriff's aid station, picnic tables, restrooms and boat ramps. Butcher Jones Beach, which can be reached by a road
a few miles north of Saguaro del Norte, features swimming, picnic and restroom facilities.
